Horns,
All I said about Yashin was that the impoversihed Sens wouldn't pay him what he deserved. If he was making $4.5 million and then as soon as he was traded that was upped to $9 million per, clearly he wasn't getting what he deserved.
Last time I checked, Ottawa didn't have an owner. I have heard a lot about soon-to-be owners but until one gets approved, any speculation about adding free agents or even retaining the players they do have once they are eligible to make real money is just that, speculation.
And one more thing I have to add. If a guy is worth $1.8 billion, he didn't get to be worth $1.8 billion by being an idiot. The Sens can't draw, they are in too small a market and there isn't enough corporate support. Now, I like seeing as many hockey teams in Canada as possible, but if the Sens do stay in Ottawa, there is no question that they will stay there as a franchise destined to lose most of their top level players whenever they are eligible to test the open market. Enless the guy is the second coming of Ewing Kauffman, he isn't going to fritter away part of his fortune on a perennially money losing hockey club.

oops forgot about the 98 win..........my bad.....ok two series 
and Nick I do agree with ya with the Sens and the support.....geez Calgary sells out their last game of the season, and the Sens can't even fill the buiding and they had the best rcord in the NHL............then again......the Sens have let down their fans in the playoffs........so maybe it's justified :shrug:
On the other hand I wish it was the same case for my Leafs.......getting a ticket for a Leaf playoff game is equal to me having a threesome with Alyssa Milano and Brooke Burke

I freely admit that part of the reason I am doing this is that I correctly predicted 7 of the 8 first round winners, but I thought it would be interesting to see how close we all came to predicting the winners in the first round.
